If you use a file system that supports transparent compression by directory, like btrfs or NTFS, there'd be no need for support in vim. (Historically people were warned off such compression because of the overhead, but you're implicitly accepting that overhead, and with lots of cores these days...)

So, if you're on Windows, you're good to go. If on Linux, btrfs is a good idea anyway IMO.
